"Unlike the other products looked at here, Zope includes its own application server, which might actually be a disincentive to companies that have already invested in a J2EE or .Net app server and don't want the headache of supporting two products. Also, Python, while a mature language, doesn't enjoy the same level of recognition as Java, VB, or C#, and shops that have invested in J2EE or .Net may not want to deal with having another language in the mix." IMHO, Zope is an excellent product but suffers from the 2 drawbacks they mention (not based on a "standard" application server + "exotic" developement language) and also another one: does not use a "standard" database as a repository. Nevertheless, set of functionality is truly impressive. Wyona is mentionned! Regards, Franck Iberplus Internet, S.L.
